People we have to get together and make a petition. Why dont we do something like a tweeter account and fill it with followers with the petition to get the civ 3 code for modders?
Civ 3 is an amazing game that could be something more than civ 4 and 5. Heck i'd be willing to pay to have access to the code so that we can finish a game they never finished.
I'd be happy if the AI could at least be taken off dumbo mode. They are only good cuz they cheat.
Things on my wish list that i'd like to see a reality:
1- Smart AI (Including better use of bombardment units)
2- Tradeable units
3- Religion
4- Dynamic use of resources (Think of Stronghold the game)
5- Civil wars like on civ 2
6- Resistance with partisans like on civ 2
7- Colonies (Not the crappy resource colony)
8- Fortresses functioning like on civ 4
9- Expanded diplomacy:
A-Trade embargoes like on civ 4 and also stops gold/turn trade.
B-United nations like on civ 4 and not just to win.
C-Able to broker peace treaties between nations like on civ 4
10- What i mean by Dynamic use of resources:
On civ 3 Gold isnt used for much but to rush, upgrade, or buy a tech. This results in massive amounts of unused gold late in the game since there are no sanctions to hurt it, or anything worth using it for besides rushing a project. What if we made resources more dynamic like for example oil. Every unit that requires oil will need to consume a barrel of oil per turn. An oil mining site connected by a road will produce 10 oil barrels per turn. The more mining sites you control the more barrels u get, the more military machines you can build, or the more you can sell to other nation's reserves so that they can afford their machines. A trade embargo would devastate nations who do not control the resource themselves after they run out of oil barrels.
This is just an example but you follow me? Its more dynamic and gold will be constantly moving to buy whatever resource you need or selling surplus. Its a trader's dream. It could be done for every resource and make it more valuable to control multiple sites of the same resource.
Lets make a petition and see what happens. Even if they sell the code im in. That doesnt mean we wont buy later products. It means they better start making better games and stop trying to sell us 'ok' products just cuz they want money.
